Live Wilderness Adventure

Chapter 454: red mud

"Mud?" Leonardo repeated hesitantly.

What is the operation of mud, isn't it to make a fire and then burn the soil into pottery?

Finally brittle with sharp fragments as a weapon?

Leonardo thought about the broken china at home, it was really sharp...

[Who said before that the next step is to make weapons, the prophet's knife]

【Is it a stone spear? 】

[Didn't you hear Fang Shen said to make iron tools before he came? Directly open the furnace to make iron! 】

Bi Fang didn't reply, his nose twitched, he sniffed lightly in the air, and said with joy, "How much insect repellent water have you put on, the smell is choking your nose."

Leonardo was a little embarrassed: "No way, there are too many mosquitoes here."

He suspects that if he is completely like Bi Fang, who doesn't wear any clothes and doesn't use insect repellent, once he stops, he is likely to be sucked to death by mosquitoes.

Even when he was sitting on the ground knitting shoes just now, Bi Fang was knitting and repelling mosquitoes at the same time.

If not, shoes could be made a little faster.

[I remember Fang Shen said a long time ago that looking for water sources depends on animals and insects, and when you go to places with many mosquitoes, you can often find rivers]

[Yes, I also remember this, it seems to be said when I was in Qinling]

[The front is all old fans]

"That's right, mosquito larvae are completely aquatic, so as long as there is a small standing water, such as a small flower pot on a balcony, it can multiply."

An adult female mosquito laying eggs in stagnant water can lay more than 300 eggs at a time, and as long as you leave it alone and keep the container full of water, it can reproduce.

The eggs hatch into larvae after 24-48 hours in the water, and they develop in about 10 days. The mosquitoes that develop in the last 2 days or so become adults, and begin to forage soon after.

It's called savage growth.

Let alone in the rainforest, the water vapor here is so rich that you don’t even need puddles, just damp soil.

[I have always hated mosquitoes! 】

[How could God create such a devilish creature? 】

[In order to make up for the absence of mosquitoes in my country in winter, a scientist finally developed a cold-resistant mosquito]

[I have seen this news, I should pull it down and cook it! 】

【Take a piece of my pie! 】

[Actually, after filling up the vacancies, there will be a lot of food, which will help animals to survive the cold winter, which is very beneficial to ecological protection... I can't edit it any more]

"It's because there are too many mosquitoes that we have to make weapons to defend against them." Bi Fang, who put on his shoes, waved his hand and motioned for Leonardo to follow.

At the same time, I looked around, and indeed I found a broken branch.

All the extra branches were removed, and a good stick appeared.

"Because there are too many mimetic animals in the rainforest, and the dark environment makes it easy for you to be tricked, a good tree stick will become particularly important at this moment, it can help us 'beat the grass and scare the snake'."

"You can also prepare one. After all, our routes are not completely coincident." Bi Fang looked at Leonardo behind him and suggested seriously.

Leonardo smiled, turned his head to look around, and learned to pick up one, but it was not as straight as Bi Fang's, and the appearance was a little worse.

[La la la, it's late but I'm here]

[I know, I know! 】

【You can always trust a straight stick! 】

[If you get lost in the rainforest, don't worry, calm down and find a straight wooden stick as a weapon first! 】

[You have obtained the artifact, go find a beast and try it! 】

"Where did I just talk about it?" Picking up the stick, and being interrupted by the netizen again, Bi Fang forgot where he was talking.

"Mosquito, you said to use clay to make weapons against mosquitoes," Leonardo added.

Linked to the soil Bi Fang mentioned, Leonardo had vaguely guessed something.

Leonardo is not without knowledge. He has seen many different people when he travels south and north, even in Africa: "Are you going to smear mud?"

Bi Fang raised his brows and did not deny: "Have you been to Africa?"

Leonardo nodded: "Where have I filmed before, I've seen local people do it, to be honest, I think it's quite primitive, they even use mud for bathing."

Bi Fang was noncommittal, but netizens scratched their heads, feeling that they could not understand this alien communication.

Mosquitoes, dirt, Africa?

What with what.

"Do you know what animal kills the most in the world?" Bi Fang did not answer directly, but asked the audience.

what is it?

Before waiting for the audience to react, Bi Fang had already given his own example: "Great white shark? Lion? Tiger? Or poisonous snake?

Mosquito?

The audience was stunned, but many people reacted.

disease!

That's right, there are few creatures that spread disease more than mosquitoes!

"Many may not understand, but in fact, the 'Life Science' website once rated the 10 deadliest animals in the world, which are the most threatening to human life.

Strangely enough, the world's deadliest animals aren't crocodiles, great white sharks and African lions, but the humble mosquito.

Unexpectedly, the most dangerous animal in the world is actually a mosquito. There are different species of mosquitoes all over the world today except Antarctica. Most mosquito bites just make you feel itchy, but some mosquitoes carry the malaria parasite. This is a parasitic disease, and the pathogen is called protozoa.

After entering the human body, the malaria parasite will parasitize in the red blood cells of the human body. People infected with malaria will have symptoms of fluctuating cold and heat. More than 2 million people worldwide die from malaria every year, and mosquitoes are the main culprit.

Therefore, it is well-deserved to say that mosquitoes are called "the number one killer of mankind". It is very necessary for us to make "weapons" to resist it. "

Two million people died!

shit.

Hearing this extremely exaggerated data, the audience was all taken aback. In modern society, there are still diseases that can cause millions of deaths?

"Everyone who can see my live broadcast is actually very lucky, because it means that you can still have a mobile phone, a computer, a TV, and the society can still provide you with a good network environment. It’s something that many people can’t own or even see.”

"With a good economic environment, the sanitary conditions are superior, but in many parts of Africa, the local people do not have such good conditions. I know an indigenous tribe and know how to resist mosquitoes."

"In a nutshell, it's smearing mud, covering your entire body with mud, using the smell and thickness of the mud to ward off mosquito bites."

"In some very backward places, if even this kind of soil height is not available, then some Africans will directly use animal feces to smear, although there are some effects, but this method is unacceptable."

When Bi Fang said that he would rather smear feces to avoid mosquito bites, the audience completely understood the horror of mosquitoes.

This is a situation that has not been encountered in any previous adventure.

Only in the face of death can people let go of their shame and smear the dirtiest objects.

"Why don't you look for some herbs to repel mosquitoes? With your ability, it's not difficult, right?" Leonardo was a little curious.

He has watched all of Bi Fang's live broadcasts, and as a Chinese person, it is not difficult to find herbal medicines to repel mosquitoes.

Why do you have to smear mud?

Such a good figure, it's a pity to put on mud.

[Yeah, why do you have to smear mud? 】

The audience is also very curious, there is no need to do so, right?

"How long can you apply toilet water for?" Bi Fang didn't answer directly, but turned to ask the audience.

[Uh, how many hours? 】

[I feel like I haven't had it for hours...]

[As soon as you sweat, there is no effect. 】

"Isn't that the reason?" Bi Fang smiled, "None of the commonly used products in modern industry can effectively repel mosquitoes, sweating and moving will reduce the effect, let alone the mosquito repellent found in the forest, not Not useful, but limited, and leaves a noticeable smell on us."

Ninety-nine percent of any substances that can be directly utilized in nature are inferior to industrialized products~www.readwn.com~ It makes sense that human society has developed for so long.

Not the more primitive the better.

It is also very troublesome to use herbs to repel mosquitoes. It has to be renewed every once in a while, and tools must be smashed to obtain juice.

It is better to apply a layer of mud to the practical, not only easier to find, but also more effective, one is chemical isolation, the other is physical isolation.

"It's not that there are no plants in Africa that have the effect of repelling mosquitoes. People call them 'mosquito trees'. Most of the local indigenous people in Africa choose to build houses near these trees or plants."

"But in addition, Africans still smear mud on their bodies, which can prove a lot of things. Now we are looking for this kind of mud, red mud."

"Red mud, literally red mud, is mainly composed of laterite, a terrestrial material carried by rivers. It is rich in iron oxide, and if anyone has worked in a ceramic factory, you will know that this is also a common pottery material."

"So this time, we are looking for red mud and water!"
